Calculate Air Velocity



Formula

To calculate the air velocity (Vair):

\[ V_{air} = \frac{AFR}{DA} \]

Where:

What is Air Velocity?

Air velocity describes the linear speed at which air flows through an enclosed duct. It is a crucial parameter in HVAC systems, ventilation systems, and other applications involving air flow. The air velocity can impact the efficiency of air distribution and comfort in a space. Accurate calculation of air velocity is essential for proper system design and performance optimization.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ V_{air} = \frac{500}{10} = 50 \text{ ft/s} \]

The air velocity (Vair) is 50 ft/s.
